I don't think any top picks in this draft make this roster in 2017...

I'd like to see Buffalo deal out of their spot and get a dman that way. Hypothetically something like
Buffalo Round 1 Pick 5
for
Anaheim Round 1 Pick 25
Theodore
Manson


Might be overvaluing the pick we give up but whatever. I'm making that call anyway.

You might get one of Theodore or Manson, not both.

In a "Matthews" or "Hall/Seguin" type draft perhaps, definitely not in a "McDavid" type draft. The thing is that there doesn't appear to be a consensus #1 or anything that is super super sexy at the top of this draft. Definitely some decent talent, but nothing generational or lights out amazeballs.

You can argue that the teams he's played on wouldn't be so poop-ass if his flaws weren't as bad

Yeah, maybe one. If we get lottery lucky though, I don't trade the pick, even if there's no Eichel, McDavid nor Matthews in it this year.

I would hire Dean Lombardi if I were the Sabres. He can turn the team around for a couple of years then let him go before he gets desperate and gives up the farm for rentals.

Honestly, another top pick is just what the doctor ordered to fix this mess

Win top 3 lottery pick, Trade down and pick up another first for next year. Draft the best player available.

You really cant say what risto is right now, they overplayed the crap out of him the last two years.... I think he'd be a monster if we cut his minutes down and he actually had anther guy next to him that belonged there.

Yep - you're severely overvaluing the pick. You wouldn't get either of them for the exchange of firsts, much rather both. Also, small point, but Buffalo can't pick 5th. It's either 1,2,3,6,7,8 or 9
- turbo044


Yeah, I said hypothetical because I wasn't sure where either team is actually picking. Thanks for the info though.

Also, isn't Anaheim still in a spot where they are forced to lose at least one d-man for nothing because of expansion? I didn't think Theodore and Manson were so highly regarded that this would be impossible if we added to it.

Let go; Gionta, Deslauriers, Franson, Kulikov, Fedun, Nillson
Trade/Let go; Moulson, Ennis, Gorges
Trade; Reinhart, Carrier.
Baptiste and Bailey need to be up all year. Gionta, thanks but kids need to play.
When we can have our third line be the 4th line we will have arrived.
The second pairing on D is the big how to? Trade Reinhart?
Unload dead weight in Ennis, Gorges, Moulson, Bogo, etc.
I would not pay Shattenkirk.
I would pay anything to get Lehner to stop a shot in the shootouts.
Nylander, needs to be up he is scary talented, put him on weight gain and let him play alongside Eichel.
Need two top 4 D (not 1), and two scoring LW's.
Don't give up on Zemgus.
Get a freaking coach that lights a fire under their asses before each game.

to Reinhart...I'm in the minority here, but I would move ROR before Reinhart. I would have no problem moving Kane & ROR if it fixes our D

Can anyone who knows something about something help me figure out why this VGA to HDMI adapter won't work? I bought it so I could connect my laptop to my tv for streams

just because your signal is coveted doesn't mean the resolution size is compatible, try changing the size on your laptop while connected to your TV, (make sure the TV is set to the correct input.).

Also how are you hooking that up... The HDMI port is input...

Technically this is a HDMI to VGA adapter... Not VGA to HDMI

Does your computer have HDMI output? Maybe your connecting it to the input port.

Does it have a spot to plug in a power supply?

Also, what version of windows are you using? You will need to go into display settings and make some changes.

The really cool way to do this is to set your tv up as a second monitor (extend the displays) so that you can keep using your computer normally.

(alternatively, spend $35 for a kodi box)

Not even close man. if you want both you are giving up your top pick and something else and not getting back their 1st.

Or, this. Set up TV as a double monitor setup.

Hmm, does this mean I bought the wrong one? I need the output to be HDMI?
